ICE Investigation: US Citizen Kidnapped, Falsely Arrested in Minnesota
Authorities in Minnesota are investigating the detention of a U.S. citizen by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) as a potential kidnapping, burglary, and false imprisonment. The citizen, ChongLy “Scott” Thao, was reportedly taken from his home without a warrant and driven around by ICE agents before being returned. Local officials are seeking information from the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) regarding the incident and have indicated a grand jury may be convened. The DHS maintains its agents were executing a warrant and acting within protocol, while the county attorney insists the investigation is solely to seek the truth.
